Xamarin.Android F# template fails to build on VS2017 15.7.1 - f#

I have Visual Studio 2017 Version 15.7.1 + Xamarin.Android 8.3.0.19 running on Win7. When I create an F# project based on Blank App Android template, build fails with the following error:
1>FSC: error FS0193: Could not find file
'C:\Users\vhrd47\source\repos\App5\App5\ProvidedTypese4595d25-58bd-4f87-96fc-ec2d29402d62.dll'.
What am I doing wrong ?

How to load a .net MAUI solution on Visual Studio For Mac 2022 without installing Xamarin.Android?

I've created a .net MAUI solution on the Mac via the command line:
dotnet new maui -n "MyApp"
When I open this via Visual Studio For Mac 2022, it errors out because Xamarin.Android is not installed.
I'm not interested in supporting Android at this point, and the download for Xamarin.Android is large. Is there any way to load the solution without installing Xamarin.Android?

"AndroidSdkData.getSdkData must not be null" error after installing Android Studio 3.2

I uninstalled Android Studio 2.3 and installed 3.2 but after installation when I opened Android Studio, I'm getting this error:
Gradle sync failed: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Argument for #NotNull parameter 'sdk' of org/jetbrains/android/sdk/AndroidSdkData.getSdkData must not be null
Also in Device File Explorer, I'm getting the error:
Error initializing ADB: Android Debug Bridge not found.
If you get the error "Please select Android SDK" you can try the following:
Open Android Studio -> File -> Project Structure
Choose your module (e.g., app)
Check that you have chosen the build tools version and correct it if not.

Windows Installer project is unsupported in Visual Studio 11 BETA

It says that my windows installer project is unsupported. "ProjectType" = "8:{978C614F-708E-4E1A-B201-565925725DBA}" is in vdproj file. Can i work with it in VS11 beta?
You can still use Windows Service project. It is installer that is not supported by VS11. Accoring to Visual Studio team, old VS Install and Deploy projects (*.vdproj) will not be supported in any future releases starting with VS11. Migrate to WIX.
I encountered the same issue with trying to open a installer package sent to me via another developer, apparently I needed to install the appropriate version of (in Visual Studio):
Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects
To open this type of project. Once I did that I was able to open this project type.
